4th
of July in Ashville
Once in every American's life they should
take a trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway through Virginia and North Carolina. Michelle
and I decided at the last minute to take a trip to Ashville for a blues concert
at Biltmore House. This trip explains our restaurant reviews in Manassas,
Linville
Falls, Pineola
and Ashville.
First stop, Lurray Caverns, America's premier hole in the ground
The Blue Ridge Parkway is sort of like the above pictures, pretty but slow to
get through on a narrow road
We finally made it to Biltmore, the largest home in America.
As great as the house is the gardens are even more spectacular.
We drove all the way to Biltmore for a blues concert at the winery and ran into
friends of my brother's from McDowell County.
Next stop sliding rock where Bob and Mary Beth are taking a slide.
Can you believe I got busted for going down the rock backwards. When I was young
college kids went down Sliding Rock standing up. Society just keeps getting
more and more safe and boring.
Hmmm ... all that driving for some tunes, a house and big slippery rock.
